Now that AT&T gets it back, let's hope they fix all the crap that cingular did and make as good as it was before the original merge. I hope AT&T does not continue the down path that cingular is going. I hope they bring it back up. If not, I only have a few months to put up with this crap and go somewhere else. 😁

🙄 🙄 🙄

It's not the same company. How many times do we have to go over this. AT&T Wireless is IN NO WAY related to the current at&t. It is simply nothing more than a name change. Although there may be some more offers with combining multiple services under the same umbrella, there will be NO reversion to the former AT$T Wireless brand.

Ummm....did you read my post. I believe I was referring to the proper names as they were set forth, whether they are capitalized or not.

He does bring up a valid question though. Originally they were playing with it in lower case. I'm not sure if that stuck or not though.

To my knowledge, it appears that the logo that will stick is the lowercase rendering.

But to get back to the original post there is no difference between cingular now and ATT tomorrow. So get it out of your head!

Did I say that? oh I'm sorry, I thought I said BRAND. How many times do we have to go over this. READ WELL before posting. I never said ATT&T Wireless either. You know what really grinds my gears people like you that dont read the posts well and voice your opinion. Just like the FOX news channel.

AT&T isn't getting anything back. "All the crap that Cingular did" is still around. There is no going back. This company is still the same company it was yesterday. It happens to have a new name.

So...

No you imbecil, I know still around, that's why I said, that I HOPE THEY BRING IT BACK UP, THAT I HOPE THEY FIX ALL THE CRAP. Meaning service, customer and cellular. What you need is to get RALPH OFF YOU, so you can breath better and get oxygen to your brain. 🙂

No, what you said was, "Now that AT&T gets it back." Not, "I hope they bring it back up."

You really can't lie when everything you said is in print. Forums are much different than speaking.

Personally I have not had any problems with customer care (in the past 6 mths). They seem quite a bit more knowledgeable then they use to and don't have an attitude anymore. I remember about 2 years ago when I called them regarding my text messaging time stamp was incorrect their answer was a smarta** one. They said 'we don't know if it will be fixed or if it will ever be fixed'.

Heres a little break down.

2004-Cingular purchases AT&T Wireless which was a spin off of AT&T Copr.

2005-SBC Com Inc.(co-creatore of Cingular) purchase AT&T Corp. and becomes AT&T Inc.

2006-AT&T Inc. and Bellsouth Corp(Also co-creator of Cingular) merge into the new at&t.

Basically what this says is that all forms of AT&T Corp. have been purchased by Cingular or SBC thus killing off the company entirely. There is no former AT&T still in operations. All manifestations of AT&T are under the AT&T Inc title and are thus owned and operated by the former SBC Communications Inc.

I cannot say this to customers, but this is what I WANT to say when they mention how "horrible" Cingular is:

IF YOU DON'T LIKE IT, GO AWAY! DON'T FREAKIN' CALL IN AND TRY TO SCARE ME BY SAYING YOU ARE GOING TO ANOTHER COMPANY! OH, AND YOU ARE NOT GOING TO PAY ETFs? FINE, IT'S YOUR CREDIT SCORE, NOT MINE. YOU'RE GOING TO TELL EVERYONE YOU KNOW TO CANCEL CINGULAR OR NOT GO WITH US? YEAH, YOU DO THAT. J*CK*SS.

you seriously never read the whole article did you? ITS A NAME CHANGE! it's still cingular, same phones, same plans, a&t customers STILL have to switch if they want to upgrade their phones. they are not going to award you "loyalty" minutes for always paying your bill and not go over your minutes -.-

Not one bit! He already tries impersonate him now but he, at best, is only a cheap imitation!!!

Very True; Jesus, unlike Satan, is the real thing. But as far as at&t, i like it. Stuff was good before Cingular came around. The locked bluetooth of Verizon is driving me crazy, among other things in that company, and I think at&t will do better.
